Manchester United are lining up a move for Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Victor Wanyama.

The Red Devils have been linked with a host of midfielders from across Europe with the future over French World Cup winner Paul Pogba rumbling on and according to Sport Witness , United see the Spurs man as the ideal fit for their midfield, if Pogba did leave Old Trafford.

Tottenham are believed to value their former Celtic and Southampton enforcer at £50 million, which United could certainly afford if they were to sell Pogba.

Barcelona are known admirers of the Frenchman, while a return to Juventus has also been mooted, although United have often stated they have no desire to sell the controversial midfielder despite his often underwhelming performances for the team.

Paris St Germain midfielder Adrien Rabot is close to deciding on his next move with a host of Europe's top clubs hoping to secure his signature.

The 23-year-old is stalling on a contract offer from French champions PSG and is a free agent at the end of the season, which has alerted a number of clubs to his availablity.

Liverpool are among those keen on signing him, as well as Manchester City and Barcelona.

The Metro report that he’s considering an offer from Liverpool and a decision on his future is understood to be close.

The Metro also translate a report from Mundo Deportivo stating City have submitted an offer for Rabiot, who has shown himself to be one of the finest young midfielders in Europe in recent times.

Manchester United are leading the race to sign Juventus defender Mehdi Benatia, according to reports .

The experienced 31-year-old is unhappy at the lack of game time he is getting for the Turin giants and with United desperately scouring the world for defensive reinforcements, a switch is on the cards.

However, the Red Devils face competition from La Liga champions Barcelons for his signature.

Meanwhile, AC Milan are planning to test United’s resolve with a bid for the Ivory Coast international, according to ESPN.

The 24-year-old was substituted just 19 minutes into the Red Devil’s win over Newcastle on October 6 and has not featured for Jose Mourinho’s side since.

United and Barcelona are reportedly in a two-way battle to seal the transfer of 15-year-old Benfica wonderkid Ronaldo Camara, according to Portuguese source Record.

The odds on Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha quitting Selhurst Park and moving across London to join Chelsea have shortened.

According to the Express , the Blues are just 6/4 to snap-up the Eagles flyer, who has three Premier League goals to his name this season and signed a new £130,000-a-week deal with Palace in the summer.

Tottenham Hotspur also remain keen on signing Zaha, while the reports also name Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City as other interested parties.

Premier League giants Tottenham Hotspur are the latest club being linked with a move for former Exeter City star Ollie Watkins.

A report in the Daily Mail suggests that Spurs have been scouting the Brentford striker for some time after his impressive debut season in the Championship.

Watkins' fine form has continued this season as well with six goals in 16 games and that has impressed watching scouts from a host of Premier League clubs.

Manchester City have looked into the availability of Lille forward Nicolas Pepe, 23, with the Ivory Coast player scoring eight goals so far this season, according to The Times .

The French outfit are reported to value the Ivory Coast international at around £44 million, with a number of Champions League clubs - including Barcelona - understood to be keeping tabs on the situation.

Southampton are reported to have had a £12.5 million bid rejected for Pepe, while Manchester United have had scouts watching him play.
